Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of geophysical logging characterization of wellside structures, and in particular to a forward simulation method and device for wellbore perimeter fractures based on remote detection electromagnetic wave logging. Background Art
[0002] The development of shale oil and tight oil and gas reservoirs is the key to increasing and stabilizing oil and gas production. The matrix porosity and permeability of this type of reservoir are low, and they must be transformed through natural fractures or hydraulic fracturing to generate fractures that are conducive to the flow of oil and gas before they have economic mining value. Therefore, the evaluation of natural fractures or hydraulic fractures plays an important role in guiding fracturing operations and improving recovery.
[0003] The long-range electromagnetic wave logging instrument is a low-frequency electromagnetic induction logging instrument in the well, which has good application prospects in the field of evaluating natural fractures and hydraulic fractures. In order to use the long-range electromagnetic wave logging instrument to achieve effective evaluation of fractures, it is necessary to establish a numerical simulation algorithm for the fracture response of long-range electromagnetic wave logging. The fracture morphology is irregular. When simulating the response of long-range electromagnetic wave logging in fractured formations, the ability of finite elements to process complex geometric bodies is more suitable. However, the scale difference between the opening and extension depth of the fracture is too large. When the fracture is discretized into a solid mesh, a large number of filling units will be generated, and the degree of freedom of the solution will increase sharply. It not only consumes a huge amount of computing resources, but also when the fracture extension is relatively long or there are multiple complex fractures, the meshing is prone to fail, resulting in the long-range electromagnetic wave logging response of these models cannot be solved.

[0057] The embodiment of the present invention provides a forward modeling method and device for wellbore fractures based on remote detection electromagnetic wave logging, which are used to achieve rapid and accurate simulation of electromagnetic responses of wellbore fractures.
[0058] In order to make the purpose, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0059] For example, see Figure 1 , Figure 1 The flowchart of the first embodiment of the forward modeling method of wellbore fractures based on remote detection electromagnetic wave logging of the present invention includes:
[0060] S101, establishing a corresponding formation model including the wellbore, the fractures around the well and the formations around the well according to the acquired target well and the fractures around the well;
[0061] In an embodiment of the present invention, the established formation model includes the wellbore and the formations near the well, which may also include one or more of natural fractures around the well, hydraulic fractures, and other geological structures near the well. The wellbore distribution and attribute information such as radius, resistivity, dielectric constant, etc. are set; the formation distribution and attribute information such as the position of the formation interface, the resistivity and dielectric constant of different layers, etc.; the number, distribution and attributes of the cracks around the well, and the characteristic scale of the cracks is extracted, including but not limited to the position, shape, opening and extension length of the cracks.
[0062] S102, determining a target fracture in the formation model that meets the equivalent requirements of the boundary conditions, and introducing the target fracture into the right end term of the unit;
[0063] In an optional embodiment, determining a target fracture in the formation model that meets the equivalent requirements of the boundary conditions and introducing the target fracture into the right-hand side term of the unit includes:
[0064] Selecting cracks with high conductivity, crack curvature radius greater than the corresponding crack thickness, and crack thickness less than 1 / 100 of the crack extension length from the wellbore cracks in sequence as the target cracks;
[0065] The target crack is equivalent to the target crack through boundary conditions, and the right-hand side term of the unit is introduced.
[0066] In an embodiment of the present invention, a conventional electromagnetic field finite element calculation method is used. After the right-hand side term of the calculation unit is calculated using basis functions and background fields, if the unit contains a fracture that meets the boundary condition equivalence requirements, the boundary condition satisfied by the tangential component of the electric field intensity on the fracture boundary is added on the basis of the right end of the conventional unit to equivalent the fracture in the formation, and the target fracture is no longer subjected to solid mesh division, thereby reducing the number of meshes and improving the calculation speed while ensuring the calculation accuracy.
[0067] In the specific implementation, the conditions for judging whether a crack can be equivalent to a boundary condition include: (1) the crack has high conductivity, in which case it can be assumed that the waves inside the conductor propagate only perpendicular to the conductor surface; (2) the crack curvature radius should be greater than its thickness; (3) the crack thickness is much smaller than the crack extension length (less than 1 / 100 of the crack extension length). Please refer to Figure 2 , FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of boundary conditions of equivalent fractures in Embodiment 1 of a forward simulation method for wellbore fractures based on remote detection electromagnetic wave logging of the present invention, and the specific boundary conditions are:
[0068]
[0069] in,
[0070]
[0071]
[0072]
[0073]
[0074] In the expression, E tan1 and E tan2 are the electric field components parallel to the interface in the media on both sides, Z 11 and Z 12 is the intermediate parameter, J s1 and J s2 are the surface current density in the media on both sides, H tan1 and H tan2 are the magnetic field components parallel to the interface in the media on both sides, and They represent the normal directions of the interfaces of the media on both sides, j is the imaginary unit, ω is the angular frequency, μ is the magnetic permeability of the medium, k is the wave number, and τ is the distance between the media on both sides.
[0075] S103, using a grid generation technology, discretizing the part of the formation model except the target fracture into continuous tiny units to form a corresponding grid topological relationship;
[0076] In the embodiment of the present invention, the formation model file and the fracture characteristic file of the formation model are read, and the formation model is discretized into small units using a grid partitioning technology, and the grid topological relationship is stored.
[0077] In the specific implementation, the fracture opening and the electrical contrast with the background medium in the formation model file and the fracture feature file are used to determine whether the fracture needs to be meshed. If the conditions are met, only the fracture boundary information is stored. If not, the frontier advancement method or other existing meshing techniques are used for meshing.
[0078] S104, selecting the background medium resistivity value of the formation model and obtaining the electromagnetic field background field distribution value by using an analytical algorithm;
[0079] It should be noted that the background medium is a virtual medium set for the convenience of numerical calculation, which represents the average distribution of the overall resistivity of the entire model. The background medium resistivity can be selected as the average resistivity of the entire model, or the resistivity when there are no cracks in the formation, or it can be determined by other existing background medium resistivity selection techniques such as the geometric factor method.
[0080] In the embodiment of the present invention, the resistivity of the formation without any cracks or other special geological bodies is directly used as the background medium resistivity, and the background field distribution value of the electromagnetic field is obtained by using an analytical algorithm.
[0081] S105, determining the unit left-end term and the unit right-end term according to the interpolation basis function, assembling the unit left-end term and the unit right-end term into a large sparse linear equation group in combination with the grid topological relationship, solving to obtain the electromagnetic field scattered field distribution value, and combining with the electromagnetic field background field distribution value to obtain the electromagnetic field total field;
[0082] It should be noted that the electromagnetic field scattering field distribution refers to the abnormal electromagnetic field distribution caused by the spatial resistivity difference when there is a difference in resistivity between the formation model and the virtual background medium. It indicates the disturbance of the electromagnetic field by cracks or other special geological bodies.
[0083] S106, obtaining a long-range detection electromagnetic wave logging response based on the total electromagnetic field.
[0084] It should be noted that the long-range detection electromagnetic wave instrument is generally composed of a transmitting short section and multiple receiving short sections, wherein the transmitting short section is equipped with one or more inclined transmitting coils, and the receiving short section is composed of one or more inclined coils, or three orthogonal receiving coils. According to the formation conditions, the source distance and frequency can be flexibly configured. Under normal circumstances, the operating frequency is usually set between 6kHz and 96kHz to ensure that the logging response has sufficient signal-to-noise ratio.
[0085] For example 2, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a flow chart of a second embodiment of a forward modeling method for wellbore fractures based on remote detection electromagnetic wave logging of the present invention, the method comprising:

[0089] Step S204, selecting the background medium resistivity value of the formation model and obtaining the electromagnetic field background field distribution value by using an analytical algorithm;
[0090] Step S205, calculating the left-end term of the unit corresponding to the electromagnetic field scattering field by constructing the interpolation basis function;
[0091] Step S206, calculating the right-hand side term of the unit by the right-hand side term formula;
[0092] Step S207, based on the grid topological relationship, assembling the unit left-end terms and the unit right-end terms into a large sparse linear equation group, and solving them to obtain the electromagnetic field scattering field distribution value;
[0093] In the embodiment of the present invention, based on the grid topology, the left-hand side and right-hand side of the unit are assembled into a large sparse linear equation system, and then the distribution of the electromagnetic field scattering field can be obtained by solving the equation system. The background field and the scattered field values are added to obtain the total electromagnetic field.
[0094] Step S208: obtaining a remote detection electromagnetic wave logging response based on the total electromagnetic field.
[0095] For example 3, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4This is a flow chart of a third embodiment of a forward modeling method for wellbore fractures based on remote detection electromagnetic wave logging of the present invention, the method comprising:
[0096] Step S301, establishing a corresponding formation model including the wellbore, the fractures around the well and the formations around the well according to the acquired target well and the fractures around the well;
[0097] Step S302, determining a target fracture in the formation model that meets the equivalent requirements of the boundary conditions, and introducing the target fracture into the right end term of the unit;
[0098] In an optional embodiment, determining a target fracture in the formation model that meets the boundary condition equivalent requirement and introducing the target fracture into the right-hand side term of the unit includes:
[0099] Selecting cracks with high conductivity, crack curvature radius greater than the corresponding crack thickness, and crack thickness less than 1 / 100 of the crack extension length from the wellbore cracks in sequence as the target cracks;
[0100] The target crack is equivalent to the target crack through boundary conditions, and the right-hand side term of the unit is introduced.
[0101] Step S303, using a grid generation technique, discretizing the part of the formation model except the target fracture into continuous tiny units to form a corresponding grid topological relationship;
[0102] Step S304, selecting the background medium resistivity value of the formation model and obtaining the electromagnetic field background field distribution value by using an analytical algorithm;
[0103] Step S305, discretizing the electromagnetic field scattering field by constructing the interpolation basis function;
[0104] Step S306, calculating the element left-end term corresponding to the discrete element by using the stiffness matrix formula and the density matrix formula corresponding to the interpolation basis function;
[0105] In the embodiment of the present invention, an interpolation basis function is constructed to perform numerical discretization on a tiny unit, and a stiffness matrix and a density matrix are calculated by a finite element equation to obtain the left-hand term of the unit.
[0106] Step S307, calculating the right-hand side term of the unit by the right-hand side term formula;
[0107] In an optional embodiment, the right-hand side term of the unit is calculated by the right-hand side term formula, including:
[0108] Determining whether the unit contains the target crack;
[0109] If not, the right-hand side term of the unit is calculated using the interpolation basis function and the electromagnetic field background field;
[0110] If so, the interpolation basis function and the electromagnetic field background field are used to calculate the right-hand term of the unit, and the boundary conditions satisfied by the tangential component of the electric field intensity of the target fracture are added to equalize the fracture in the formation.
[0111] Step S308, based on the grid topological relationship, assembling the unit left-end terms and the unit right-end terms into a large sparse linear equation group, and solving them to obtain the electromagnetic field scattering field distribution value;
[0112] Step S309, interpolating the total electromagnetic field in the location unit containing the receiving coil to obtain the magnetic field at the center of the receiving coil or the electric field on the coil conductor;
[0113] Step S310, based on the magnetic field at the center of the receiving coil or the electric field on the coil conductor, obtain the remote detection electromagnetic wave logging response through Maxwell equations or integration along the conductor.
[0114] In the embodiment of the present invention, the total electromagnetic field is interpolated in the location unit containing the receiving coil to obtain the magnetic field at the center of the receiving coil or the electric field on the coil wire. Further processing can synthesize and output the phase difference, amplitude ratio and other remote detection electromagnetic wave logging responses.
[0115] A forward simulation method for wellbore fractures based on remote detection electromagnetic wave logging provided in embodiments 1, 2 and 3 of the present invention comprises: establishing a corresponding formation model including a wellbore, wellbore fractures and wellbore formations according to the acquired target well and wellbore fracture information; determining a target fracture in the formation model that meets the boundary condition equivalent requirements, and introducing the target fracture into the right-hand end term of the unit; using a grid partitioning technique, discretizing the part of the formation model except the target fracture into continuous tiny units to form a corresponding grid topological relationship; selecting the background medium resistivity value of the formation model, and obtaining the electromagnetic field background field distribution value by an analytical algorithm; determining the unit left-hand end term and the unit right-hand end term according to an interpolation basis function, and assembling the unit left-hand end term and the unit right-hand end term into a large sparse linear equation group in combination with the grid topological relationship, solving the electromagnetic field scattering field distribution value, and obtaining the electromagnetic field total field in combination with the electromagnetic field background field distribution value; obtaining a remote detection electromagnetic wave logging response based on the total electromagnetic field. Replacing fractures with boundary conditions can significantly reduce the number of grids, reduce the degrees of freedom in solving, improve computational efficiency, and achieve efficient simulation of low-frequency electromagnetic responses of complex multi-scale fractures. It has important application value in the evaluation of natural fractures and hydraulic fractures in shale oil and gas and tight oil and gas reservoirs.
[0116] Example 4: Assume that there is a horizontal disk-shaped crack that cuts through the wellbore in the homogeneous medium. If the boundary condition equivalent crack is not used, the crack is divided by a solid grid. The grid after division is as follows: Figure 5 The solid mesh partitioning diagram when the boundary conditions are not used to equalize the fractures in the formation is shown in the schematic diagram. The fracture formation model is partitioned by using the boundary conditions to equalize the fractures in the formation. The mesh after partitioning is as follows Figure 6 The schematic diagram of the mesh division after the equivalent boundary conditions are applied to the crack is shown in the figure.
[0117] In the figure, the high conductivity fracture with a certain thickness is equivalent to the boundary condition, and the fracture entity is not segmented, which greatly reduces the number of grids and improves the calculation efficiency. When the fracture opening is 1cm and 3mm, the amplitude ratio and phase difference of the electromagnetic wave logging of the long-range detection of the uniform formation without fractures are shown in Figure 1. Figure 7 to Figure 10 As shown, Figure 7 This is a comparison chart of the equivalent amplitude ratio signals of a 1cm crack with and without boundary conditions. Figure 8 This is a comparison chart of the phase difference signal when the crack with 1cm opening is equivalent to the boundary condition and when it is not equivalent to the boundary condition. Fig. 9 This is a comparison chart of the equivalent amplitude ratio of a 3mm crack with and without boundary conditions. Fig.10 The comparison diagram of the phase difference signal with and without boundary conditions for a 3mm opening fracture shows that, at the same opening, the amplitude ratio and phase difference show obvious anomalies at the fracture, and the amplitude ratio and phase difference logging responses have good consistency.
[0118] Calculate the relative errors of the amplitude ratio and phase difference of the remote detection electromagnetic wave logging after applying the boundary conditions equivalent to different fracture openings, such as Fig.11 Comparison of relative errors of amplitude ratios of cracks with different openings after applying boundary conditions Fig.12 As shown in the phase difference relative error comparison diagram after applying boundary conditions to equivalent cracks with different openings, it can be seen that the relative error of the two methods for 3mm cracks is less than 1%, the relative error of 1cm cracks is less than 4%, and the relative error of 2cm cracks is less than 10%. The opening of natural cracks and hydraulic fractures in actual formations is generally less than 1cm, so the embodiment of the present invention can achieve high-precision simulation of cracks while significantly reducing the amount of calculation.
